A boy and his monkey

My wonderful sister (Tucker's Aunt Heather) bought Tucker this adorable stuffed monkey when we found out about his splenic tumor. This is by far the biggest toy he has ever owned, and he carries it around everywhere. He even got to have it with him when he spent the night at the vet's the night of his surgery (Monday). Hopefully it comforted him while he was there. Enjoy the pictures! :)

Hi Jess and Brian! And Tucker!

These pictures are just so sweet! I'll be anxiously watching this blog for positive updates and news on sweet Tucker (he's such a nice boy!) My thoughts are with you - I know how much you love him, and I can't imagine how scary this must be. Good luck and positive thoughts to you all.

How precious. My Darcy loved Teddy Bears and they had to be huge, and oftentimes were bigger than her. She simply loved toting them everywhere and being comforted by them during thunderstorms or fireworks.

Don't you just love to make your guy happy with something so simple as a woobie?

Love can make miracles happen. I'm sending you and Tucker tons of love and positive energy, from my Red Man, who crossed the Rainbow Bridge in January.

Can anyone tell me how long did Tucker live after been diagnosed?

Tucker was diagnosed in July (although looking back, he started having symptoms as early as March-April), and he passed in late December.
